Also in the Jets/Chargers game - Madden and Michaels were speculating that SD didn't take the touchback when the Jets were flagged for an illegal touch and downed the ball at the SD 2 yard line. They stated that the only reason that they'd make the Jets punt again is because they must have felt they could block the kick.
I think the best Michaels explaination was that, if the replay showed that K1 was out of bounds, SD would get a touchback because, without the illegal touching, the ball would have gone into the end zone.

So if I throw a perfect pass, and my reciever gets held on his route to the end zone, do I get a touchdown? Hmmm - I want Al Michaels reffing my games!
